Well, It's holiday season again, another year has come and gone and where are most people?

They are one year wiser, one year older, and in the same place they were last year, upgraded, or downgraded. I know that I have made some upgrades from where I was last year, however, I didn't get as far as I had wanted to go. I think maybe this year I will plan to be more focused on myself. I will be more attentive to what needs to be done in my life, and deal with it head on.

Some say that "ignorance is bliss." Well, that's the one thing that bites every body when they least expect it. Well, in my case, when things get tough and I feel overwhelmed regarding my life and whatever current issues are happening at the time, I go and hide somewhere. I ignore the problems until I am forced to deal with them. Life sucks and the truth about it hurts. The more it is ignored, the more it hurts. I am making a promise to myself to not make the same choice in this next year. I promise to myself that I will deal with my life's problems head on this next year. I will force myself to continue dealing with my life. I will not avoid situations and hide from life. I will overcome my feelings of inadequacy and intimidation. I will be the man I need to be and stand up.
